Nami or Benami ?
Why Differentiate ?
============================
Following report appears in today’s Hindustan Times :
“ PM Narendra
Modi says Aadhaar will be used to track benami properties “
Prime Minister Narendra Modi said on
Thursday the 12-digit biometric Aadhaar number would be used to track assets bought with slush funds in a proxy’s
name, better known as “benami property”,
reaffirming his government’s resolve to crack down on corruption.
Modi’s statement at the inaugural
session of the 15th edition of the Hindustan Times Leadership Summit confirms
reports of the government’s plan to use the unique identity number for property transactions, a sector where the use of black money is
rampant.
The move to clamp down on benami transactions follows a series of
measures the government has taken to combat corruption. Modi said measures such
as demonetisation and a new goods and services tax had left the corrupt scared
and brought black money into the formal economy.
Dear Shri Narendrabhai :
When it comes to linking Aadhar with a person , race / region / religion / creed
/ caste etc do not form a basis
In same way , linking Aadhar with a given property , must not depend upon
whether it is a “ Nami Property “ or a “ Benami Property “
And why wait for a “ Property Transaction “ to take place , in
order to uncover a “ Benami Property “ ?
Why not insist that ALL properties must be linked with the Aadhar Number
of its owner ?
As to how this can be done , please refer to my
following earlier emails :
Then mandate that ALL property
transactions must be registered online ( on some Govt portal ) , in the
following form :
·
Name of the Seller / his Aadhar Number / PAN Number
·
Selling Price / Bank Account in which amount deposited
·
Name of the Buyer / his Aadhar Number / PAN Number
* Buyer’s
Bank Account Number from which payment made
This will ensure that no property
will remain Benami !
